The Black Door opens…
Mankind responds to extraordinary crises when the wall between universes crumbles and falls. Giant spiders. Dragons. Demons. Monsters from the depths of our subconscious. This isn't fantasy, it's science. It's also a Black Door scenario, deep blue end-of-the-world stuff. And while scientists of the National Security Agency's Nightwatch division rush to understand and mitigate the dangers rolling over us, elite response teams close with and contain threats to drive men mad. Wayne Garrett leads one such team. They've never been blooded; how could they be? But they run toward the screams the rest of us try to escape. They can't afford an off day, they can't make mistakes. They win, or we lose. Let's pray they win.
Guardians at the Gate
In a country in which teachers are demonized as incompetent, where everyone wants quality schools but no one wants to pay for them, what becomes of those who stand for principle, who know what to do to teach young minds, but are prevented from doing so by their own supposed leaders? Guardians at the Gate is a satirical examination of the state of public education. It is a no-holds-barred gut shot to the myths and underhanded purposes that threaten this uniquely American institution. It inspires, it accuses, it will make you laugh and make you afraid. More importantly, it should make you act. There are enemies at the gate; there are guardians at the gate. Which side of the gate are you on?

Not enough food, not enough water, not nearly enough hygiene for that many people. Is it Dog-Eat-Dog or Serve the Pack? Does mankind make it through survival of the fittest or through seeing fit that all survive? Either way, it's gonna be a heck of a trip.
